A statement has been prepared at
the general land Office at Washington
showing the number of acres of land
restored to the public domain under
the orders of the Secretary of the In
terror dated August -, Is and IL, 1887.
Twenty-one millions, three hundred
twenty three thousand acres have been
reopened for settlement The great
bulk Of the restored lands lie in Oregon,
California and Arizona; and the North
ern Pacific, the Southern Pacific and
the Atlantic and Pacific, are the heav-
lest losing railroads. Many more for
feited land grant cases remain to be
acted upon, the disposition of which
will doubtless result in the restoration
OF many more millions of acres to the
people The reform in the land policy
will be of great benefit to the country

Married, in the city of Milwaukee,
on Thursday, Sept. Sth, by Rev. Father
Keough, rector of the Milwaukee Ca
thedral, Judge D. S. Rose, and Mrs.
Margaret Blakely, of this city. No
cards.
Farmers and their wives and daugh-
tiers are taking livelier interest in
our county fair than ever before. If
we have good weather the institution
is bound to be a success.
The Monroe Sun.
We are informed that most horrible
and fendish murder was committed
on Sunday of this week, near Post
vile, a boarding house boss running
a shanty for the accommodation of a
gang of Italians being the victim. He
angered the exiles of Italy by not sup
plying them with proper food. The
feeling against the unfortunate boss
grew so bitter that it eliminated on
the day in question in twenty-five
Italians falling on him with their keen
stilletoes and literally hacking and
carving him to pieces, each man taking
hand in the horrible crime. Sixteen
of the murderers are in jail at Free
port, and officers are in pursuit of
the balance.
The Richland Observer.
On Thursday evening of last week
during the absence of the family,
burglars entered the residence of Au-
gustus Hoskins in the third ward, and
made big haul, securing over ST. 100.
On the return of Mr.. Hoskins he found
that his house had been visited by
burglars, and on investigation made
the startling discovery that they had
robbed him of the amount named
above The money had been collected
by Mr.. Hoskins for the purpose of in
vestment and had only been in his
possession a short time. Two young
men were arrested on suspicion of be-
ing the burglars, but there being no
evidence against them they were dis
charged

The Wisconsin Tobacco Reporter,
published at Edgerton, says that there
is greater activity in the tobacco mar
ket than at any time since the buying
of the sc crop commenced. For the
first time in several months the buyers
really seem anxious to purchase. The
growing sections are being thoroughly
canvassed, and farmers whose asking
price is anywhere within reason, have
but little trouble to find purchaser.

Hon. Roswell Z. Flower embraced
the very earliest opportunity on his
return from Europe to deny with
emphasis the alleged interview tele-
graphed from Europe in which he was
falsely reported as saying that Cleve-
land could not be reelected. His firm
belief is that Cleveland is stronger
now than in 1884, and would be elected
by greatly increased majority, while
Blaine is weakened by having provok-
ed too many antagonisms in the State
of New York.-The Stare.

\ number of our republican ex-
changes, notably The Darlington Re
publican and The Mineral Point Trib-
une have had IA good deal to say of late
about alleged democratic mismanage-
ment of the financial affairs of the
state of Indiana. The following par
agraph from The La Fayette Qndiana)
sunday Times shows that such charges
have no foundation and are nothing
more than baseless partisan lies:
There is good deal of senseless
slush in the Republican and democratic
papers about the condition of the In
diana State Treasury which is said to
be empty The democratic State
Treasurer when he went out of office
last winter, turned over to his Repub-
lican successor a large amount of cash.
1t has disappeared and some democrat
ic papers would make their readers
think that the republicans have stolen
it. On the other hand the republican
press charge the shortage to the dem
ocrats. Both sides are lying. The
present condition of the Treasury is
owing to the failure of the last legisla-
ture to levy the necessary taxes and
make the proper appropriation, and
for this, the republican and democratic
members of the legislature are alike
responsible. No money has been stolen
or misappropriated by either party, and
all the talk to that effect is rot"
The editor of The Times evidently
knows whereof he speaks, and tells
nothing but the naked truth. If The
Republican or The Tribune had de-
cent regard for the trnth they would
make haste to correct their fragrant
falsehoods which they have published
in regard to the matter. But that
would be too much to expect of organ
grinders who must never hesitate to
republish all lies set atloat in the in
terest of their party.

The Balloon "trip.

The Times statement that that journal
would be represented in the Examiner
balloon ascension is little premature.
There will only be three passengers, the
aeronaut, Mr.. Mcdowell. of the Exam
iner, and Mr.. Husher, the photographer.
The ascension is to be made for the pur.
pose of advertising the Eramiaer. and
as the enterprise will cost considerable
amount of money, and as the Times has
shown no disposition to share said ex-
penses, it is probable that that paper
will not be represented. Mr.. Hearst,
proprietor of the Examiner, telegraphed
yesterday that the pennant to be pre-.
sented to the winning club in the ball
game is completed, and is beautiful
affair some twelve feet long and made of
brocaded silk. Mr.. Hearst will probably
be here himself when the balloon goes
up. The Sixth street park and vicinity
will doubtless be crowded Sunday to see
the game and the ascension.
